    Abstract Although patients with COVID-19 can have mild nonspecific myalgia and mild elevation of creatinine kinase levels, severe myalgia along with elevation of creatinine kinase levels >10 times the upper normal limit and dark-colored urine indicate an underlying severe rhabdomyolysis. This report describes a 60-year-old morbidly obese man who was found to have severe rhabdomyolysis, along with acute kidney injury, dark-colored urine, and a positive COVID-19 test. He had a prolonged hospital course requiring continuous renal replacement therapy, mechanical ventilation, and multiple vasopressors and eventually died of multiorgan failure. The management of severe rhabdomyolysis and COVID-19 is challenging, and fluid resuscitation should be done cautiously, monitoring for early signs of fluid overload.

    Abstract We present a case report of a non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) occurring in an 89-year-old male with severe rhabdomyolysis and COVID-19 infection. The patient had a complex medical history, including non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, sinus bradycardia status post permanent pacemaker placement, and multiple comorbidities. He presented to the emergency department after a mechanical fall and was found to be COVID-19 positive. Despite the absence of typical symptoms, the patient's elevated troponin levels and electrocardiogram findings indicated NSTEMI. The initial management included an acute coronary syndrome protocol and admission to the cardiac intensive care unit. During the hospitalization, the patient developed acute hypoxic respiratory failure and was treated for COVID-19 pneumonia. The patient's renal function and creatine kinase levels showed improvement, and cardiac catheterization revealed non-obstructive coronaries. The patient was discharged in stable condition with a follow-up scheduled.

    Abstract We report the case of a 38-year-old man who presented to the emergency department with fever, myalgia, nausea, vomiting, dry cough, breathlessness and abdominal pain. He was admitted due to hypoxaemia and was diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 and was subsequently referred to the intensive care unit for intubation and mechanical ventilation. Severe rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury developed 4 days later and were suspected after noticing discolouration of the urine and a marked increase in plasma myoglobin levels. Treatment included hydration, forced diuresis and continuous renal replacement therapy. In addition to the coronavirus disease acute respiratory distress syndrome, he was diagnosed with possible SARS-CoV-2-induced myositis with severe rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure. The patient survived and was discharged from intensive care after 12 days, returning home 23 days after hospitalisation, fully mobilised with a partially restored kidney function.

    Abstract We report a case of severe hypercalcaemia secondary to rhabdomyolysis in a woman with COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2) infection. The patient presented with myalgia and anuria with an acute kidney injury requiring haemodialysis. Creatine kinase peaked at 760 000 IU/L. A biphasic calcaemic response was observed with initial severe hypocalcaemia followed by severe, symptomatic hypercalcaemia, persistent despite haemodialysis. Control of the calcium levels was achieved by continuous haemofiltration.

    Abstract Neuromuscular symptoms may develop or persist after resolution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Besides residual sensorimotor symptoms associated with acute neuromuscular complications of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, critical illness neuromyopathy, and rhabdomyolysis, patients may report persistent autonomic symptoms, sensory symptoms, and muscle symptoms in the absence of these acute complications, including palpitations, orthostatic dizziness and intolerance, paresthesia, myalgia, and fatigue. These symptoms may be associated with long COVID, also known as post-COVID-19 conditions or postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, which may significantly impact quality of life. Managing these symptoms represents a challenge for health-care providers. Recent advances have identified small-fiber neuropathy as a potential etiology that may underlie autonomic dysfunction and paresthesia in some long COVID patients. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying myalgia and fatigue remain elusive and need to be investigated. Herein we review the current state of knowledge regarding the evaluation and management of patients with persistent post-COVID-19 neuromuscular symptoms.

    Abstract Rhabdomyolysis has been described as a complication of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection, but few cases of rhabdomyolysis associated with COVID-19 vaccination have been reported. We described a case of an 80-year-old male who developed rhabdomyolysis two days after receiving his second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. He presented with severe weakness, myalgias, and an initial creatinine kinase (CK) of 6,546 IU/L that improved with intravenous fluids. Common causes of rhabdomyolysis were excluded including statin use, strenuous exercise, and trauma. With the increasing immunization efforts against COVID-19, physicians should consider the possibility of rhabdomyolysis when a patient presents with neuromuscular complaints following vaccination.

    Abstract COVID-19 is a systemic viral disease complicated with medical conditions. Severe rhabdomyolysis during the COVID-19 course is not until now well known.
    Case presentation: The authors presented a 48-year-old female with fatal rhabdomyolysis caused by COVID-19 infection. She was referred to us with cough, generalized myalgia and arthralgia, and fever during the last week. Laboratory results showed an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, elevated C-reactive protein level, and elevated creatine kinase. The nasopharyngeal swab confirmed the diagnosis of coronavirus 2 RNA infection. She was managed initially in the COVID-19 isolation department. Three days later, she was transferred to the intensive care unit and mechanically ventilated. Laboratory results were consistent with rhabdomyolysis. She died because of cardiac arrest due to continuous hemodynamic deterioration.
    Clinical discussion: Rhabdomyolysis is a serious condition that can be fatal or cause disability. Rhabdomyolysis cases have been reported in COVID-19 patients.
    Conclusion: Rhabdomyolysis cases have been reported in COV19 patients. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanism and to optimize the treatment.

    Abstract Rhabdomyolysis is a condition characterized by the destruction of skeletal muscle cells with the release of myoglobin and creatine kinase into the blood. Viral infections such as influenza and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) have been associated with rhabdomyolysis with varying degrees of morbidity and mortality. We present the case of a male in his early thirties who was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection who developed excessively high creatine kinase levels, peaking at 1,650,000 U/L. He was treated with IV fluids and made a complete recovery.
